Keith Olbermann's Special Comment on Healthcare

Last night's Countdown with Keith Olbermann had a special comment on what Olbermann termed as 'legislators for sale'—those who pose resistance to any plans for a public health insurance option, Democrats and Republicans alike—relating their resistance to the amount of money they have received in donations from health insurance, drug companies, etc..

I posted a chart a few days ago on the health sector's contributions to legislators, which showed that they ebb and flow depending on the majority in Congress. Olbermann goes so far as to name congressmen and congresswomen who, as he puts it himself, 'have sold their soul.'

I believe I'd say the same if I believed in a soul.
